"overdevelopment"کی تعریف اور معنی

What is "overdevelopment"?

Overdevelopment happens when photographic film or paper is left in the developer solution for too long. This causes the image to become too dark or have excessive contrast because the chemicals continue to react and add more detail than intended. It can result in images that are overly dense, with lost details in the highlights and shadows, reducing the overall quality of the final photograph.
